16 Let us, your servants, see you work again;
let our children see your glory. — Psalm 90:16 NLT
Psalm 90
Lord, we live in a sinful world where evil is magnified on a daily basis. Our children are daily tempted with overdoses of “me first” and sexual innuendos. They see riots in city after city where people get what they want by protesting and violence rather than working through the legal system. The America we live in now is not the America that most of us were raised in. It is more like Macedonia when Paul arrived. There are fightings on the outside everywhere we look and there are people all around us living in fear. 2 Cor. 7:5, 6 Our kids and grandkids see good people struggling everyday to make it. They see parents working too many hours because the parents live in fear of not being able to give their kids everything they think they want. First, help us as parents and grandparents to live lives totally dependent on you. Let us be the examples that show the younger generations that possessions and busyness do not bring peace and lasting joy. Remind us of that daily by helping us to observe the work that you are doing in our world right now, all around us. Then, Lord, let our lifestyles be a beacon to others to point the glory you receive from our obedience. Open our eyes to see that you are still a God who works miracles on a daily basis. Let our children see your glory and the beauty of worshipping the only ture and living God. As Pastor Jack Graham says “YOU CANNOT EXPECT YOUR CHILDREN TO LEAD DYNAMIC, SPIRIT-FILLED CHRISTIAN LIVES IF YOU AREN’T LIVING A VIBRANT, DYNAMIC, SPIRIT-FILLED CHRISTIAN LIFE YOURSELF”.
Help us to live lives totally dependent on You and the leadership of the Holy Spirit. Help us to talk the talk and walk the walk before them that they may catch hold of Who you are and what you desire for each of us. Your desire is for us to be joyful and content no matter what our present situation may be.
Father, thank you for protecting our kids and grand kids. First of all and most importantly of all, thank you for protecting them spiritually so that they will spend an eternity with you. Then, thank you for protecting them physically, mentally and emotionally and for providing for their every need. All praise and glory be to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray. Amen
